About the host

Hosted by Ashley Wind

Host profile image
Our family called SML home back in 2012. We acquired our first property in 2014, followed soon with our second, and love the lake so much we have now invested in a third property for our very large, extended family. We live very close to the lake and between all of our properties, spend the majority of the summer there. We have thoroughly enjoyed meeting nice people like ourselves through renting our homes and derive substantial pleasure from opening our homes to others so all can enjoy the most amazing lake anywhere!

Why they chose this property

While there are many homes on SML, it is difficult to find properties that are a "total package." We have literally reviewed the real estate at Smith Mountain Lake every day for 7 years. We only buy the rare properties that have the key assets--large high quality home, clear deep water, nice docks, pleasant views, and often the hardest thing to find, a flat lot with a gentle walk to the water.

What makes this property unique

Extremely large home that is top notch construction and now, fully and thoroughly renovated. The access to the lake is the best we have ever seen at SML. A few steps on flat ground get you from the front porch to the dock. The dock is also a massive asset as few homes on the lake can claim the amount of square footage and size that we can with this property. The games and amenities we provide are unrivaled by any other property. Pack light--we have it all covered!
